Chapter Seventy-Five: Relaxation Before the War
As we all know, January and February in the north of the solar calendar, it is quite cold. The outside temperature started at minus ten degrees, and the Eighth Route Army at that time did not have very heavy cotton coats or even a pair of simple gloves. Even so, the Eighth Route Army still insisted on training in this very harsh environment every day. You imagine that the sourness of touching metal products at zero distance is more than ten degrees below zero, so I can't describe it too much, right? ?
The hardships and fatigue endured by the Eighth Route Army at that time are beyond our imagination.
On February 13, 1938, the 7th Company of the 735th Regiment gathered the soldiers of the 7th Company at about 7 o'clock in the morning as usual, and was preparing for training.
Shen Yunjie appeared at the training ground at this time. Shen Yunjie glanced up at the sky, not to mention that the weather was really good today. The sun came out early in the morning. It's just that the wind is still a little cold.
Shen Yunjie shouted "Lao Cai" in the direction of Lao Cai and Li Moran, and Shen Yunjie waved his hand to Lao Cai while shouting Lao Cai.
Lao Cai hurriedly ran towards Shen Yunjie.
Due to the weather, everyone will feel haze as soon as they speak. Shen Yunjie is no exception, Shen Yunjie opened his mouth and sighed, and naturally formed a "Notice: Quanlian has a day off today"
"Ah?!?h
"Ahh
"But?! This one?! After Lao Cai answered, Shen Yunjie began to mutter, "Company commander, what's wrong today?" Didn't you say that you might be going to fight the devil soon?? If you don't take the time to train, let everyone rest?? What kind of medicine did the company commander buy in this gourd?? ”
Shen Yunjie saw that Lao Cai Leng didn't move, "What are you doing in a daze??" Hurry up. Shen Yunjie was also very puzzled at this time, "Strange?!" What I'm talking about today isn't a foreign language, how can Lao Cai not understand anything?? I should have made it very clear! ”
Lao Cai didn't think much about Shen Yunjie's reason for doing this at this moment, nor did he ask Shen Yunjie too much, but first did what Shen Yunjie said.
Lao Cai returned to the team.
"Comrades, we don't train today, everyone has a day off." Lao Cai conveyed Shen Yunjie's meaning to everyone.
Although Li Moran was a little curious, he didn't ask much.
Wang Benlei asked in the queue: "That means we are free today??" ”
"So to speak. But you must not cause trouble for me everywhere. After Lao Cai answered Wang Benlei's question, he shouted "disband" loudly
Then Lao Cai Li silently followed Shen Yunjie back to the company compound.
After entering the house, the three of them found a place to sit down.
Lao Cai still can't understand why Shen Yunjie wants everyone to rest at this time. Lao Cai must say anything in his stomach, otherwise he will suffocate Lao Cai to death. "Company commander, I still don't understand that I'm going to fight devils soon?? The other companies are training intensively, why do we need to rest?? ”
In fact, in addition to Lao Cai, Li Moran was also very curious. Lu Kuan next to him looked calm, because this decision was made by Shen Yunjie and Lu Kuan after discussion.
Shen Yunjie was not in a hurry, he first stretched his waist, and Lao Cai next to him was in a hurry.
"Lao Cai, don't be in a hurry when you encounter something, think about it carefully, we train every day in addition to training, we have been training for so long, and we still care about this day and two days?? It's because the big war is about to happen that I let everyone relax, and sometimes it's not good if the string jumps too tight. Shen Yunjie's current thoughts are like everyone is about to take the final exam, and everyone is still hurrying to review in front of them, but the day or two before the exam, many people will choose to relax themselves.
I have to say that Li Moran's understanding in this regard is indeed higher than Lao Cai's, Li Moran already looks like he has suddenly realized, and Lao Cai can't turn this corner there.
"Oh, company commander, you mean, since the big battle is imminent, it is better to let them train, let them relax, relax and adjust to the best condition."
"By the way, you kind of get it. It's really not easy," Shen Yunjie breathed a sigh of relief. If Lao Cai keeps not understanding, he must keep pestering himself?
Lao Cai smirked twice.
After having lunch at noon, Shen Yunjie took advantage of the fact that he had nothing to do now and went back to his room to take a nap.
Shen Yunjie woke up at half past one o'clock, and Shen Yunjie, who had taken a nap, was obviously in a much better spirit.
Shen Yunjie came to the company compound.
After entering the house, Shen Yunjie found that Lao Cai, Li Moran and Lu Kuan were all in the house. "Strange?! I have nothing to do today, why are you still here?? ”
Lao Cai looked at Shen Yunjie with a bitter gourd face, "I also want to go out, but I have thought about it for a long time and have nowhere to go." ”
Li Moran and Lu Kuan nodded at the same time, agreeing with Lao Cai's statement.
"Do you want Li Moran to go to the village chief's house with me?" Shen Yunjie suggested to Li Moran.
Li Moran hadn't answered Shen Yunjie yet, but Lao Cai hurriedly said, "Company commander, I also want you to take me?" ”
Lao Cai proposed to follow him to the village chief's house, Shen Yunjie was not surprised at all, if it was okay, Lao Cai would follow behind Shen Yunjie if he had nothing to do, Shen Yunjie had already been accustomed to it.
However, what surprised Shen Yunjie a little was that after Lao Cai finished speaking, Lu Kuan also said that he would follow Shen Yunjie to the village chief's house. The reason why Shen Yunjie was surprised was because although Lu Kuan had been here for a while, in Shen Yunjie's impression, Lu Kuan seemed to have no intersection with the village chief.
Maybe Shen Yunjie was a little surprised and obvious, Lu Kuan hurriedly explained, "Usually, you often mention the village chief in your mouth. I thought that I didn't have anything to do today, so I would like to go with you to the village chief's house and get to know the village chief by the way. ”
After Lu Kuan finished explaining, Shen Yunjie shifted his gaze to Li Moran, and Li Moran in this room has not yet expressed his position. The moment Shen Yunjie's eyes fell on Li Moran, Li Moran hurriedly nodded at Shen Yunjie and said that he would also go to the village chief's house.
After Shen Yunjie saw Li Moran agree, "In that case, let's go to the village chief's house!" ”
Shen Yunjie and the four of them came to the main hall of the village chief's house under the leadership of Sister Feng.
As soon as they entered the house, the four of them immediately felt a warm current coming to them, and then the four of them were in the warm current.
The reason why the village chief's house is so warm is that there is a stove in the village chief's house, and the fire in the stove is very vigorous, and the coal in the stove has been burned red and crystal clear. It has been mentioned before that the village chief's family is an invisible rich man, and this stove and these coals are simply not worth mentioning to the village chief's family, in today's words, they are rich and capricious.
Lu Kuan and Lao Cai were dumbfounded, as if they had discovered a new world. Lao Cai has only been to the village chief's house once or twice.
Shen Yunjie and Li Limo are no longer surprised.
After Yiyi found Li Moran, the look of being depressed and idle, just now, immediately became full of vitality from the corners of his mouth.
Sister Feng just wanted to wake up the village chief who was taking a nap, but was stopped by Shen Yunjie, who put his hand to his mouth and made a shushing gesture at Sister Feng. The village chief was lying in a rocking chair with a thick blanket draped over his body taking a nap.
After learning that the village chief was still taking a nap, Shen Yunjie's movements began to be lighter. Shen Yunjie didn't expect that the village chief was still taking a nap. Knowing that this was the case, Shen Yunjie didn't choose this time period to come to the village chief's house.
Yiyi jumped and came to Shen Yunjie and them very lightly, "Brother Yunjie, why are you here?" Although Yiyi was talking to Shen Yunjie, her eyes never left Li Moran.
For Shen Yunjie, Yiyi is like his own sister, Shen Yunjie stroked Yiyi's head very lovingly, "Yiyi, do you miss your brother?" ”
Yiyi replied "no" very mischievously, and then made a grimace at Shen Yunjie.
Shen Yunjie took the opportunity to tease Yiyi: "Oh, I know, you've been thinking about Li Moran all along, how can you still think about me!" ”
"Humph!"
Li Moran was on the side, and he didn't know why his face was red.
Yiyi then found three stools, one handed to Li Moran, one to Lao Cai, and the last one to Lu Kuan. Yiyi deliberately didn't bring a stool to Shen Yunjie.
Shen Yunjie and Yiyi looked at each other, "Hmph, don't look at me, I don't talk to bad guys." I don't even care about bad guys. ”
Shen Yunjie had no choice but to find a stool by himself.
Although Li Moran was a little embarrassed to be teased, he still introduced the instructor to Yiyi, "Yiyi, this is Lu Kuan, the instructor of our Seventh Company"
After introducing the instructor, Li Moran introduced Yiyi to Lu Kuan, "This is Song Yiyi, the granddaughter of the village chief."
This is the village chief just waking up. "Yiyi, why don't you know how to notify me when Lian Commander Shen comes"
Yiyi looked aggrieved: "Grandpa, I'm not afraid of disturbing your nap??" ”
The village chief looked aggrieved at Yiyi, and immediately changed from the question just now to an apology: "I'm sorry, it's grandpa." Grandpa shouldn't reprimand you without asking. You must not be angry with grandpa," because it can be seen that the village chief also loves his granddaughter very much.
Although Yiyi has always been pampered by the village chief, Yiyi is not the kind of person who makes trouble unreasonably.
The village chief found a stool and sat with Shen Yunjie and them.
After the village chief sat down, "Company Commander Shen, why did you think of coming to the old man's house today?" ”
Shen Yunjie also told the truth, "Village Chief, this has been busy recently, so we haven't come to visit you for a long time, isn't this a little worried about you" In fact, Shen Yunjie was afraid that he would never have the opportunity to see the village chief and Yiyi again when he went to fight the little devil this time.
Then Shen Yunjie introduced the instructor Lu Kuan to the village chief.
"Hello village chief, my name is Lu Kuan, and I haven't been here for a long time. In the army, I have always heard them mention you as the village chief, and I also heard Shen Yunjie say that you are full of wealth, and I admire you very much. Today, I am fortunate to finally meet the real person" These words are all Lu Kuan's heartfelt words, Lu Kuan has indeed always wanted to know the village chief. It's just that I haven't had the right opportunity.
"Don't listen to Shen Yunjie's nonsense there, I'm just a very ordinary person," the village chief was also very modest.
In this way, everyone began to chat, and the village chief's house immediately became very lively.
Everyone chatted together, and Sister Feng was still busy, very conscientious.
